“There are so many memories and emotions inside this stadium,” Zlatan said in his farewell to the fans. “The first time I arrived they gave me happiness, and the second time they gave me love. I would like to thank my family and all those close to me for their patience.”
He added, “I want to thank my second family, the players, the coach and his staff for the responsibility they gave me. I would like to thank the managers for the opportunity they gave me.”
And he concluded: “I would like to thank the fans, they welcomed me with open arms and I will be a Milanista all my life. It is time to say goodbye to football, but not to say goodbye to you, it is very difficult, there are many feelings, I will see you around if I am lucky, Forza Milan, bye.”
